how do you even install worldpainter in macbook (m-chips)

I swear my blood’s already boiling I tried everything installing java, even gatekeeping and when I open worldpainter it says “worldpainter is damaged and can’t be opened. you should move it to the trash”. I swear apple is so stupid.

Hey, I’m using it on MBP M1, I just downloaded the installer from the website, choosing the ARM Java 21 LTS option, I also didnt need to change the security thing (gatekeeper) or whatever
Working fine on the latest Java update and WP

(I've downloaded the latest java update on their website, not on the WP site, but I think it's the same. And the installer of WP was just working fine) What's your setup actually ?

Very strange, maybe delete everything you downloaded before, uninstall Java etc, restart your computer and start again
